The choice : embrace the possible / by Eger, Edith Eva,author.; Weigand, Esmé Schwall,author.; Zimbardo, Philip G.,writer of foreword.;
At the age of sixteen, Edith Eger, a trained ballet dancer and gymnast, was sent to Auschwitz. Hours after her parents were killed, the 'Angel of Death, ' Nazi officer Dr. Josef Mengele, forced Edie to dance for his amusement -- and her survival. He rewarded her with a loaf of bread that she shared with her fellow prisoners -- an act of generosity that would later save her life. Edie and her sister survived multiple death camps and the Death March. When the American troops liberated the camps in 1945 they found Edie barely alive in a pile of corpses. Edie spent decades struggling with flashbacks and survivor's guilt, determined to stay silent and hide from the past. Today, at ninety years old, Edie is a renowned psychologist and speaker who specializes in treating patients suffering from traumatic stress disorders. She weaves her remarkable personal account of surviving the Holocaust and overcoming its ghosts of anger, shame, and guilt with the moving stories of those she has helped heal. She explores how we can be imprisoned in our own minds and shows us how to find the key to freedom.

Turn autism around : an action guide for parents of young children with early signs of autism / by Barbera, Mary Lynch,1965-author.; Grandin, Temple,writer of foreword.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Developmental delays and signs of autism usually show up before 18 months of age. This book is for parents of young children aged one-to-five years who are passionate about helping their child as well as learning how they can return their lives to as much normalcy as possible. Turn Autism Around delivers a new message: autism and other developmental delays can be remediated, and in some cases, delays can be caught up altogether, if parents intervene while the child is young. This book introduces a novel approach to teaching kids with developmental delays that uses the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) but marries it with a positive, child-friendly methodology that any parent can use-whether or not their child has delays-to learn communication skills, socialization strategies, as well as tackle sleep, eating, toileting, and behavior challenges in a positive, effective, and lasting way. This book will educate parents that they can't afford to wait and worry about autism as well as empower them to regain hope and take back control with simple practices they can implement themselves-even 15 minutes a day-to dramatically improve outcomes for their children"--
